A change for the sake of change will make it worse. In my view, Benitez has failed the minimum test: gut the club but keep us safe while doing it. You can't lose to the likes of Norwich and go on the run we have without bringing your personal mission into disrepute. I thought he could keep us safe at least while changing remorselessly from within. But these players - these useless players who have seen off multiple managers - will be the death of him and probably us. Frank Lampard has done nothing in football to justify the Everton job. Duncan and Wayne are our versions of Newcastle's Alan Shearer appointment: sentimental but misguided follies. Any serious candidate for the job will need time to bed in - and we don't really have that. So, our options are pretty grim. Moshiri might get stubborn and stick with Benitez, who really does not look like getting the results he need in the short term. Maybe he would, eventually, but that looks a gamble at this point. Or he could panic, make a change out of desperation and plunge us into farce with Rooney or Ferguson. His history of scouting prospective replacements is telling: he doesn't have a plan B as his Marco Silva pursuit showed.

So, while a change looks necessary to me, ANY change won't do. It needs to be one that works. I fear we might finally have used our nine lives.

Excellent analysis this.
I still wonder what happened during that game against Watford. He never got that corrected. We never again looked like the side that was so confident against Man Utd.

Am I right in saying he didn't want to leave France, pal? Such a shame like.

Does he even speak English?

Dunno, has an incredible record over there though, feel like we could do with a more outside of the box appointment to freshen us up rather than picking managers on whether or not they’ve got prem experience

Outside of the box, I'd go for someone like Bo Svensson of Mainz in Germany. He'd certainly freshen us up, but I get why a few on here would see him as a risk we can't afford to take.
